See how photographer Kennedi Carter, the youngest person to shoot British Vogue’s cover, is taking her career to new heights.
is focused on the next phase of her artistic journey, one that she hopes will include a rich personal life outside of her career. Below, she describes just how the opportunity with Beyoncé altered her life.cover was definitely the moment everything changed. I was doing a lot of work in North Carolina primarily. I would get assignments, but they were jobs rather than [large-scale] productions. And I’d just say “okay, I’m taking what I can get.
I didn’t always have the financial ability to be as picky as I wanted to be, but now I have some of that freedom. And I still continue to do a lot of journalism jobs, but only ones where the story speaks to me in particular. I started photography when I was in high school. I knew it was something that I wanted to do, but I was just always so scared that it wouldn't be a lucrative thing for me, given the fact that I'm based in the South. It required me to believe in myself. I didn’t have direct inspiration, just trust in the process.Every photograph that we see is in some way telling a story, or at least pushing a narrative.
I’m proud of the fact that I get to be picky now. But is there a particular project that I’m super-proud of, as to what will be the biggest part of my visual legacy? I haven’t had that yet. When I think about all the artists that we look up to now, particularly Black ones, we did not have the access to them that we do now [through social media]. We only know them through their work and through their writings. Now I’m searching for that same barrier between the art, the artist, and the public. I want room to be able to consciously evolve into the human that I’m meant to be, outside of my work. That’s what I would like. And I think that’s what I would like my “signature” to be.
